Winning Best Italian at the 2014 Beijinger Reader Restaurant Awards was a very special milestone for Annie’s. The first ever Beijinger Restaurant Awards was held way back in 2004 – in those days the magazine was called That’s Beijing (Yes there is now another mag called That’s Beijing – it’s complicated!). In 2004 Annie’s was awarded Best Italian, and we’ve won it every year since! We’ve won lots of other awards too, like Best Pizza, Best Family Friendly, Best Service, Best Restaurant yada yada, too many to list!

But most importantly, that’s 11 times in a row to win Best Italian, which makes us really proud! We are a Beijing business started by Annie, a local Chinese lady with a love of Italy. We opened our first restaurant in 1999 and have been working hard ever since, growing and always trying to improve. Beijing has changed a lot in that time, and so have we. Thanks for making it a Delicious Decade for Annie’s – we couldn’t have done it without your votes! 🙂

We thought it would be fun to have a look back at some of our past awards, so we had a dig around around for old photographs. The design of the plaques has changed a bit over the years, and we’ve all got older too (boo-hoo!). That’s inevitable, of course. But our service is still the friendliest in town, and our food tastiest and better value than ever! So thanks for your support over our Delicious Decade, and here’s to the next one. xxx
